Title: Production method
Inventor: KOTSOPOULOU EKATERINI
IPC: C12N15/67
Filed: 2008-08-19
Granted: 2013-11-14
Abstract: The present invention provides methods of reducing the levels of a titratable selectable pressure required, the number of amplification cycles, and the time taken to generate protein expressing cell lines by altering the codons of the desired open-reading-frames. Through the use of codon adaptation for this purpose the methods of the invention consistently provide sufficient yields in faster time frames saving many weeks in cell line development activities. Furthermore the methods of the invention also generate cell lines with lower concentrations of selection and amplification agent than previously achievable. Accordingly lower levels of selection and amplification marker in the final cells lines are observed.

Title: Air conditioning apparatus
Inventor: YAMAGUCHI TAKAHIRO
IPC: F25B1/00
Filed: 2009-02-25
Granted: 2012-02-02
Abstract: An air conditioner which can appropriately determine the amount of refrigerant without requiring much time even if there is a liquid refrigerant accumulated in an accumulator when the determination is performed. An air conditioner (1) has a refrigerant circuit (10) having an accumulator, a shutoff mechanism (38), a refrigerant detecting mechanism (39), an operation controlling means, a refrigerant amount determining means, a means for determining liquid refrigerant accumulation, and a liquid refrigerant releasing means. In a cooling operation condition, the refrigerant detecting mechanism detects the quantity of state of the amount of refrigerant present upstream of the shutoff mechanism. The operation controlling means performs liquid refrigerant containing control. The refrigerant amount determining means determines whether or not the amount of refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit is appropriate based on the quantity of state of the amount of the refrigerant detected by the refrigerant detecting mechanism in the liquid refrigerant containing control. The means for determining liquid refrigerant accumulation determines whether or not liquid refrigerant is accumulated in the accumulator. When it is determined that liquid refrigerant is accumulated in the accumulator, the liquid refrigerant releasing means releases the liquid refrigerant from the accumulator.

Title: Preloading to reduce loads and save steel on topsides and grillage of catamaran systems
Inventor: LUO MICHAEL Y H
IPC: B63B9/06
Filed: 2010-01-11
Granted: 2014-08-14
Abstract: The present invention reduces loads and saves steel on topsides (110) and grillage (125) of a catamaran system (100) by creating an upward, lifting force from a barge (115) to the topsides to offset a sagging bending moment of the self-weight on the topsides during transportation. The present invention can reduce the span of the supports on the topsides on the catamaran float-over barges and move the reaction forces toward inner edges of the float-over barges. The upward force can cause a reduction of stress on the topsides' and grillage's members caused during the topside offloading and transportation. The stress reduction can result in the members withstanding the additional dynamic load caused by a catamaran system without increasing member sizes adequate for an offloading operation. The reduction results in a significant savings, given the size of a typical topsides for a Spar hull or other offshore structure.
